    Misconceptions about the ISO 9000 family


    There are many most common misconceptions about ISO 9000 family which runs through the mind of Management & Quality Professionals. These doubts hamper the proper implementation of ISO 9000 and get in the way of reaping all the benefits of ISO. Various misconceptions exist about the ISO 9000 family of standards. All of the following are untrue: 1. Products can be certified against ISO 9001. (Only organizations can be certified as compliant with ISO 9001.) 2. ISO 9001 is a management system. (Although the title of clause 0.3 of ISO 9001 is Compatibility with other management systems it is not intended to imply that ISO 9001 is a management system ISO 9001 is a document not a system.) 3. The standard requires that you say what you do, do what you say and prove it. (A system needs to be established that enables the organization to satisfy the requirements of its customer and other stakeholders.) 4. The quality management system is the quality manual, procedures, instruction and records. (The quality manual, procedures, instruction and records is simply a description of the system the system is that which generates the results, that which produces the outputs, that satisfy the stakeholders.) 5. Only 6 documented procedures are required. (The numbers of procedures required are those that are deemed necessary for the effective control and operation of the organizations processes.) 6. Process mapping is required for all processes. (The documentation can be in any form or medium. Processes need to be defined and documented to the extent necessary for effective operation and control.)

    7. You have to appoint a Quality Manager. (A person needs to be appointed to ensure the system is established, implemented and maintained what the job title is, is for the organization to decide.) 8. Job descriptions are required. (The responsibilities, authority and competences need to be defined what the document is titled is for the organization to decide.) 9. All out of date documents have to be removed. (Obsolete documents may be retained if clearly identified as such.) 10. All purchases have to be from approved suppliers. (Suppliers need to be capable of meeting the organizations requirements.) 11. Purchase orders must be signed. (Orders need to be passed through a process that will ensure their adequacy prior to release.)

    12. Documents have to carry an approval signature. (Documents need to be passed through a process that will ensure their adequacy prior to release.) 13. All measurements have to be made with calibrated instruments. (Measurement methods need to produce results of an accuracy and precision consistent with the measurement requirements.)
